What else should people know about your site:

Capt. Spaulding's World or CSW is operated by a 20-plus year news and weather veteran who just happened to be born on the same day of the year as Julius or "Groucho" Marx. Fortunately it wasn't the same year as I've toiled for several of Kansas City's corporate news media since 1991. My specialty is spot or "breaking" news and weather information. Being CSW's chief editor, reporter and janitor- I also take license under my guise as "a social Libertarian" to comment on The Flavor of The Day, while aggregating regional news sites on The Web. When I'm dressed accordingly I'm a weather buff- and I break/cover U.S. tornado strikes as well.
